Lots of brewpubs in Texas are participating in this by creating their own House Brown 660. The requirements are only that it be a robust brown ale with 6.60% ABV and 66.0 IBUs. Seems like a worthy excuse to go have a beer, not that one is really needed beyond it being the first tap.
Tried this tonight.



I'll be damned if it wasn't delicious. It had a certain brute quality to it. Like they threw together a bunch of shit they knew would make a brown ale with 6.60% ABV and... voila... it made a brown ale with 6.60% ABV. I didn't get the sense that a lot of time went into trying to make a great beer and it didn't need to: this was perfectly great as-is.
